Ĵý Theatre is wrapping up it’s production year with William Shakespeare’s “The Comedy of Errors,” which runs at Scott Studio Theatre (806 N. Turner Avenue) Thursday through Saturday, May 2, 3 and 4, at 7:30 p.m. and Sunday, May 5 at 2:00 p.m.
“The Comedy of Errors” tells the story of two sets of identical twins who were accidentally separated at birth. When the Syracusans encounter the friends and families of their twins, a series of wild mishaps based on mistaken identities lead to wrongful beatings, a near-seduction and false accusations of infidelity, theft, madness and demonic possession.
Ticket prices are $8 for general admission and $5 for seniors and non-Ĵý students. The production is free to Ĵý students.
